Stuart0742 Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 We received this by email today Hi I was wondering if you new of or could find any info about the Barrel pub in Sheffield now called Fagans? I know my Great Grandfather was the land-lord (owner?) there in 1914. His name was Matthew Rogers and he was Irish. I am trying to find my family as I'm doing my family tree and I can find no records for Matthew or his wife, my Grand-dad was called James Rogers and he would have been 11/12 years when living at the pub. Please let me know if you have any info regarding them Thanks you for your time Regards Mandie Christophers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I know my Great Grandfather was the land-lord (owner?) there in 1914. His name was Matthew Rogers and he was Irish." I would be very interested in seeing any evidence (Certificates, letters, envelopes etc etc) to confirm Matthew Rogers. Ukelele Lady, any further updates (main record needs updating with the above).

He was there in 1915 when his son, also Matthew Rogers, was married to my great grandmother. Legend has it that the family originated in Ireland but so far I've not had any luck tracing them.

Jane Burnett Hi Jane It looks like we are related Your Great Grandfather was my Grandads older brother . My Grandad was called James and was born in Denaby in 1903, your Great Grandad was Matthew born in Denaby? in 1895, there dad Matthew was born in Sligo Ireland in 1871, he married Margaret Corcaron also from Sligo. I have been doing the family tree and have traced back to my Great great great Grandfather who was from Ireland but not sure where, we always new the family were from Sligo. My sister and myself are going over there in July this year to see what else we can find out, all very exciting. can you tell me anything about yourself and your family? I now have lived overseas for a long time and am currently living in Sydney Australia. I would love to know more about your family as I have no record of what happened to my Grandads brothers or sisters. Look forward to hearing from you.

Tom Boulding had the pub renamed from The Barrel in his honour. tThe sign was pinched once and a new one had to be made. Alwayss a good Irish music pub. Claose to St Vincents the Catholic Church of the Irish area in the Crofts round Solly Street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huthwaite Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Slightly off topic, I have been doing some updating on my family tree and have found that one of the earlier landlords; Charles Ledger born 1810 was a distant ancestor,in 1871 he moved to 13 Northumberland Road,where he is still listed as licensed victualler ,I cannot find any information about this property having ever been a pub,or was it just his home address???? Interestingly, in 1891 he is at a hydropathic establishment in Ashover with a Patrick Fagan b 1831 in Ireland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
